RE: Why would anyone want to go to an orphanage - and how it has changed my life . Blog#1
A very touching post and so wonderful that you are helping these children.
I can't help wondering why so many of these children have poor eyesight and need glasses? Are they vitamin deficient or is there some kind of pollutant in the water there?
May these children get all the help they need. Thanks for all you are doing.
Hi. Thanks for your kind words. These children are fine in terms of general health.
Refractive error is the most common cause of visual problem in children. It is hoghly adviced thag a child gets their first eye checked at 1 yesr then 6 montly till 3 years then yearly as the eye development occurs rapidly during this period and child might need glasses for focusing. It was just a case of unwareness. But now we have got these children screened and their vision corrected. The good news is i received an email from another school who want screning done.hope to share another story soom
Regards.
Great to hear that the children are healthy and are now getting the eye screening that is so needed and other schools too. Keep up the good work!
Thank you for your kind words. Here to serve. :-)
